But we don't have a consistent order there for them to remember. When DH was taking a grad class he stopped at Moe's every single week and they recognized him and knew his order. They'd even make it for him even after it stopped being on the menu. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2294688 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 10:00:18 +0000 Dandelion 2294688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have places that know who we are, but I change my order all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2294667 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 09:45:35 +0000 snowjewelz 2294667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chinese buffet by work...

But I would have one lady's large chocolate cone for her when she walked in &amp; another guy would walk across the street (very old man) and he always ordered a hamburger, "shoe strings" aka French fries, and a cup of coffee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2294527 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 08:08:59 +0000 erinbaderin 2294527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They used to know me at Starbucks, but then I changed jobs and stopped going so often. </p> <p>In university we went to the same bar so often that when they saw us come in, they'd have our drinks ready by the time we got to the bar. In retrospect, that's a little embarrassing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2294315 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 22:08:53 +0000 ms.line 2294315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope!

It was the last place we ate out before LO was born and the first restaurant we took her to. The waitress was especially happy because her name is Lily too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2294013 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 17:40:48 +0000 MrsSCB 2294013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we lived in the nyc area, our favorite little Mexican place was like that.

I've been thinking lately how it's funny that some people are such "routine" people who always go the same places and get the same things etc, and then there are people like us, who are not at all like that. Maybe we need to get some more routines...? We don't have any of "our" places or things...hmmm </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2293957 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 16:19:53 +0000 Caly 2293957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend and I have gone to the same restaurant every Friday for years...maybe 8 or so? Anyhow, we've gone there so much they know us and have even given us the employee discount a few times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2293945 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 16:10:56 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2293945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In university, the Tim Hortons on campus was like that for me.

I pick up the takeout and people know my name &amp; usual order. Dunkin Donuts, our BBQ spot, our pizza place (I'm Miss Lemon said so sweetly there!), and my Greek place remember me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-go-to-any-restaurants-where-the-employees-know-your-order-or-your-name#post-2293925 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 15:51:23 +0000 mediagirl 2293925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Example - when you walk into Starbucks, do they know you're Carol and your drink is the Venti triple white mocha? </p>
